Montreal Municipal

Within the last year, two mayors have stepped down, prompted either by criminal charges or the harsh light of testimony at the Charbonneau commission hearings on corruption and collusion in the awarding of public contracts. Montreal's next mayor and administration will have its hands full rebuilding the city's reputation and finding a better, cleaner, more efficient way to govern and spend taxpayers' money. Everyone has a duty to pay attention and make a thoughtful choice, based on the candidates and the ideas they put forward. In the remaining weeks, we'll do our best to give citizens the information they need before casting their ballots for mayor, city and borough council positions.

Chatting with Femen Quebec about Nudity, the Crucifix, and the Charter of Values

Quebec’s mind-numbingly boring legislative National Assembly was recently treated to a lot more toplessness than the usual Jesus Christ—who is known for hanging out on the cross at the front of the room with his shirt off—when three women stormed the parliamentry proceedings, ripped off their shirts and yelled out “Crucifix, décalisse” or “Crucifix, get the fuck out,” for those of you not familiar with sacrilegious Quebecois slang. As you’ve probably figured out by now, the three women are members of the controversial feminist movement Femen. This time, the women went topless to protest the presence of the crucifix inside the National Assembly in contrast to the supposed “religious neutrality” of the controversial Quebec Charter of Values. Xenia was part of a small group of women, alongside Inna Shevchenko, who chainsawed a four-meter high wooden crucifix in Kiev, as the Moscow court was about to release the verdict on the Pussy Riot case.

Before I left I had the benefit of plenty of young locals whom I could reference for night spots. Montreal has a ton of night spots, but I wanted to seek a place or two that were "my speed" if you will. That meant dive bars. Well having been to Montreal now I can't say that I'm surprised that Biftek was mentioned. That lead to me Yelping and finding Blue Dog and then this place. Well I spent a good hour trying to find the place. So I hit up the bar on a Sunday night. Monday night rolled around and I headed back for a second night at about 10:30. As for the bar itself, like I said before, it's a dive bar. Jeux de Societe! Board Game night! (every other tuesday!) 6 Gay Gems Outside Of The Montreal Gay Village.

Stationnement de Montréal. Jello martini lounge. John William Dawson. Sir John William Dawson, CMG, FRS, FRSC (October 13, 1820 – November 19, 1899), was a Canadian geologist and university administrator.[1] Life and work[edit] John William Dawson was born in Pictou, Nova Scotia, where he attended and graduated from Pictou Academy.

John William Dawson

Of Scottish descent, Dawson attended the University of Edinburgh to complete his education, and graduated in 1842, having gained a knowledge of geology and natural history from Robert Jameson. Dawson returned to Nova Scotia in 1842, accompanying Sir Charles Lyell on his first visit to that territory. Dawson was subsequently appointed as Nova Scotia's first superintendent of education.

Maison Kam Fung (La) - Sticky Rice Balls - Montréal, QC. Cuisine Méditérranéene & Libanaise Restaurants. Our group of four chose this resto as a part of The Light Festival 2010. The food served was great!! Imagine: 9 entrees, a main course, a desert and some coffee. Plus live music and (later on) a baladi dancer... and all costed 35$ per head (tax, tips) not incl. There were some staples of Lebanese food but they tested differently. For example I often eat quite a lot of wine leaves rolls but the taste of the same stuff in this resto is pleasantly different It was a discovery of the Lebanese food of its best. Chez Le Restaurant Zawedeh, vous y découvrirez le nec plus ultra de la cuisine libanaise et continentale et ceci, dans une ambiance des plus chaleureuses et des plus uniques au centre-ville de Montréal.

Study dates and coffee cups: A mini guide to cafés for queer scholars

Perhaps equally inevitable is the strange mix of excitement and dread that fills the air each September. Yes, it’s that time of year again: school is in full swing. Higher learning certainly has its perks, but the first week of class always feels like it will haunt your dreams forever. Montreal's New Queers on the Block take their pants off. Up Yours! Bills itself as a queer (strip) dance party “It is a lot harder to find a queer-friendly venue than you’d think,” says Julie Aslop and Cat Tarrant, co-coordinators of Up Yours!

A brand-new monthly dance party in Montreal. “Some bars weren’t comfortable with the name of the event. One bar even told us: This is a straight bar, we have our clientelle.” Aslop and Tarrant call themselves the New Queers on the Block and they’re part of a group of young, organized queers who don’t see themselves reflected in Montreal’s Village. “A lot of the people we hang out with don’t feel comfortable in the village,” says Tarrant. Montreal is rich is queer-friendly spaces lately, both inside and outside the Village. What went down at the Up Yours!
